This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Aaron Jones?

Postby burntfire » Thu Sep 03, 2020 1:28 pm

What value are we putting on him?

I have a need for a mid-high tier RB and am thinking about throwing some pieces at another team with a need for WR.

What do you think the future brings for him? I know Dillon is in camp but I don't want to trade away promising pieces for someone who may be elsewhere next year.

I think this is the question everyone’s trying to answer. I’m in the same boat. He’s a hold for me personally. I also have AJ Dillion but I need help at the RB position too. I’m thinking about throwing picks at people for rbs

Assuming it's your team in signature, realistically you need 2 rbs. A mid-late first is pretty much the only pick I'd send for him. I personally don't think he's on the Packers next year

I think Aaron Jones is a very good running back. Unfortunately his fantasy output last year is unsustainable and it seems impossible for him to match it. I also think that AJ Dillon might be a better pure prospect than him, surpassing Jones' ability should he reach his potential.

I'm worried like many of you that the Packers aren't willing to give Jones the kind of money that elite running backs are demanding these days. If AJ proves himself, I think the Packers will let Jones seek his big contract elsewhere.

All that being said he's definitely worthy of a first round pick in a vacuum. Though I don't think that should be the direction you step in with your team. I already shared my thoughts on that in the other form thread.

All these concerns are backed into his valuation at mid-first. Had the Packers not drafted an early-round RB, we'd be talking about him at the bottom of the top tier of RBs or the top of the second tier.

Yah I'm in a weird spot where I'm a contender and need an RB but also have a great young core of WR. Jones owner wants Jeudy + Fuller which I would do but as I mentioned I'm high on Jeudy. With that being said I have a massive surplus of mid-level WR that I need to offload.

I think I'm rolling with what you have as for now and holding your 2021 1st. Your team still seems like a few players away from contending. I'd build around your young, high end wr core and Jacobs. You need a better option at te and qb depth. I don't think I'm dealing a future first for a player that could be out of GB next season and has really only had 1 big time year.

If you decide that you're going to push your chips in and contend this year, Jones is a good piece to target. Jeudy for him seems like appropriate value, but I'd rather trade a future first than Jeudy.

It's so weird who we decide is legitimate and which players we collectively write off. I don't think Jones is ever going to have another season as eye poping as 2019, but even should he leave Green Bay he's going to be a fantasy RB1 somewhere.

As crazy as this sounds it might be better for him to leave Green Bay, as I think that offense is declining and Dillon is stiffer competition than Jones has ever faced. That's not to say that Dillion would take Jones job, but they'd definitely limit each other's upside.

I'm thinking about reaching out to his owners in my league right now. See if anybody's afraid.
